BACKGROUND:There is no consensus on the choice of anatomic plate or dynamic hip screw for the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture. Current research is limited to smal-sample studies, and it is difficult to carry out a large-sample multicenter analysis. OBJECTIVE:To carry out Meta-analysis about the literature on anatomic plate versus dynamic hip screw in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures, in order to evaluate the efficacy of anatomic plate versus dynamic hip screw in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. METHODS:The PubMed database (1995-2013), EMCC database (1995-2013), CBM database (1995-2013), CNKI database (1995-2013), VIP database (1989-2013) and Wanfang database (1995-2013) were searched by computer to col ect the control ed trials of anatomic plate versus dynamic hip screw for the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. Then, the retrieved studies were screened according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The quality of the included studies was evaluated to extract useful y data, and Meta-analysis was performed by using the RevMan5.0 software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 19 control ed trials were included with a total of 1 730 cases. Among them, 764 cases were belonged to the anatomic plate group, and dynamic hip screw group included 966 cases. The Meta-analysis results indicated that there were no statistical y significant differences in fracture healing time, prognosis excellent and good rate and postoperative complications between two groups (P=0.34, 0.58, 0.80);the operative time, intraoperative blood loss and postoperative drainage volume in the anatomic plate group were lower than those in the dynamic hip screw group (P<0.000 01). The results indicate that anatomic plate and dynamic hip screw have the similar clinical efficacy for the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures, but the anatomical plate has relatively simple operation and less bleeding. Due to the poor quality of the included literatures and high bias occur and influence the effect, so more wel-designed multi-center randomized control ed trials should be performed to provide high-quality evidence.

Objective To investigate two fixation methods for reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)with autogenous patellar tendon graft and their instant stability.Methods 15 specimens were divided into three groups.The first group was treated with 1/3 bone-patellar ligament-bone replacement and in terference screw fixation,the second group was treated with 1/3 bone-patellar ligament and Krackow locked bilateral suture,and in the third group the intact ACL was not treated.The mono-axial tensile tests were performed on a versatile hydraulic material testing machine(WE-5A)to compare the linear load,maximum load,linear straining,maximum straining,linear displacement,maximum displacement,rupture displacement,destructive energy,elastic modulus,and ultimate strength of ACL in the three groups.Results The ACL stability and rigidity in the group of 1/3 bone-patellar-bone replacement and interference screw fixation were higher than those in the other two groups.The differences between test results were statistically significant.Conclusion The ACL reconstruction with 1/3 bone-patellar ligament-bone replacement and interference screw fixation is a good method to ensure higher strength of graft and better joint stability.

Objective To investigate the effect of multidisciplinary intervenient on survival of patients with malignant tumor. Methods Six hundred and thirty-nine malignant tumor patients were randomly assigned to the intervenient and the control group. A total of 584 completed the follow-up study. The intervenient group received comprehensive treatment for 2 years,while the control group was in a process of self-rehabilitation. The 2-year survival rate was compared between the groups by using Cox proportional hazard model. Results The 2-year survival rate was 94. 74% (108/114) or 80. 67% (121/150) in II stage patients of the intervenient or control group, respectively ( P < 0. 01 ) . The 2-year survival rate was 88. 03% (163/177) or 82. 8% (184/222) in early and medium stage patients of the intervenient or control group,respectively(P <0. 01). Conclusion The multidisciplinary intervenient may help to improve the 2 year survival of early or moderate stage malignant tumors.

Objective To investigate and evaluate the change and efficacy of Active-wing Appliance in patients with lingual tipping deep overbite of Angle classⅡdivision 2 malocclusion.Methods Twenty patients with lingual tipping deep overbite of Angle classⅡdivision 2 malocclusions were selected for our study. Among the twenty patients, fifteen are girls and five are boys, whose age are from 16.0 to 23.0 years old with average of 18.8 years old . The patients were treated with Active-wing technique and all of them were non-extracted.Cephalometric films were taken before and after treatment to assess the effect of treatment . Eleven angular and thirteen linear measurements were taken. Paired t test was performed to analyze and evaluate the effects before and after treatment. Results Active-wing Appliance have advantage of easy operat-ing with short treatment cycle for treatment of deep overbite of Angle class Ⅱ division 2 malocclusion. It only takes 11 months in average for the treatment. After treatment, mandibular plane angle were increased (23.00° ± 6.76° vs 21.59° ± 5.32°),overbite were decreased [ (1.02±0.81) mm vs (5.67±1.22) mm] to reach normal level;incisors were labial incline sig-nificantly with increased protrusion and inclination;Post treatment parameter improvement also include:U 1-NA distance in-creased (4.67±1.21 ) mm vs (1.24±1.37) mm;U1-NA angle increased (24.40°±6.36° vs 11.70°±6.87°);lower incisors were significantly intruded[ (37.16 ± 1.81) mm vs(38.90 ± 1.84)mm];L6-MP were extruded [(31.68 ± 2.87) mm vs (30.38 ± 3.45) mm]; The cuspid and molar relationships were changed from Class Ⅱ to ClassⅠ occlusion. Conclusion The Active-wing Appliance can quickly open overbite and correct incisor lingual tipping for Angle class II division 2 with lingual tipping deep overbite. It is easy to operate and has been improved as efficient and shortened treatment. Meanwhile, it also saves arch wire. The Active-wing Appliance is especially powerful for lingual tipping deep overbite. However, the deficiency in torque control of premolars might be noticed.

Objective: To study the interaction between the calcium channel antagonist nimodipine and growth factors (vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF] and platelet-derived growth factor[PDGF]) during the formation of new retinal vessels. Methods: The hyperoxia model was induced by proliferative retinopathy (OIR) in newborn Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. SD rats (2 d after birth) were randomized into 5 groups: normal control group, pure OIR group and group 3, 4 and 5, where the animals received retrobulbar injection of nimodipine 10 ?l, 5 ?l and 2 ?l once every 2 d for 3 times, respectively. Both eyeballs of newborn rats were made into common pathological sections and detected by immunohistochemistry method to count the nuclei of proliferative retinal vessel cells and to investigate the expression of VEGF and PDGF in retina. Results: The nuclei of proliferative retinal vessel cells and the expressions of VEGF and PDGF in pure OIR group increased significantly compared to those of normal control group(P

AIM: To investigate the effects of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) on experimental osteoarthritis in rats. METHODS: Forty rats were randomly divided into four groups. Group A is normal control group. Osteoarthritic models of rats were established by intraarticular injections of papain into the right knee joints of groups B, C and D. Then the right knee joints of rats in groups C and D, respectively, received 150 ?l intraarticular injections of DHEA at a concentration of 50 ?mol?L~(-1) and 100 ?mol?L~(-1), and the right knee joints of rats in groups A and B both received 150 ?l physiological saline, twice weekly for five weeks. Six weeks later, all rats were sacrificed, and the articular cartilage was assessed by gross morphologic, histologic, biochemical and immunohistochemical methods. RESULTS: The cartilage damage in groups C and D was much less than that in group B through observation under a surgical microscope. The Mankin's score, nitric oxide (NO) in the douche of articular cavity, malondialdehyde (MDA) in synovium, the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-1 and 9 in articular cartilage in groups C and D decreased in comparison with group B, and the foregoing indexes in group D decreased significantly compared with group C. However, the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the douche of articular cavity and blood serum in groups C and D increased in comparison with group B, and the foregoing indexes in group D increased significantly compared with group C. CONCLUSIONS:DHEA shows a cartilage-protecting effect which is in a dosage-dependent manner. The mechanism probably is to inhibit the expression of matrix metalloproteinases and to decrease the release of (NO and enhance the antioxidation.
